So it turns out that Airtran Airways have just installed wifi onboard their entire 136 fleet of aircraft making them the first airline to offer Wifi onboard all flights.
Utilising Wifi onboard flights allows business people to communicate back to the office and being more productive in the air means you’ll get the job done faster on the other end.
But what about those that don’t have a laptop or a Wifi enabled phone? like the majority of passengers onboard a flight, they won’t have a laptop with them. But they will have a mobile phone.
Switching on “Flight Mode” on mobile phones, and creating a bluetooth connection to the BlueZone Onboard system (which in turn is connected to the Wifi service) would mean that those without a laptop can still get online.
Looking to the future I can see more airlines taking up Wifi services and coupling that with BlueZone Onboard means that the airlines can offer a TOTAL internet service to all its passengers.
